Brad Blakeman (Repub. strategist) just called Obama a "snob"
Edited on Wed Jul-09-08 08:49 PM by jenmito
On "Verdict" they were discussing Jesse Jackson's comment, and Blakeman clamed it shows Obama talks down to people and even Jesse Jackson thinks so, as if Obama is better than everyone else for telling Black men they should take responsibility for their children. Ron Reagan and Tanya Ackerman (?) asked him what makes him "snobbish" and he said he thinks Obama's better than everybody else, just the way he "carries himself," and on and on. It was ridiculous.

3. Yup. It's so obvious. And the best he could do was say it's the way he CARRIES himself?

7. Me, too. He also keeps saying that Obama flip-flopped on everything from the Iraq War to
campaign financing to talking to Iran, etc.

NOW he's claiming Obama looked "uncomfortable" in the family interview, which couldn't be further from the truth. He added that there's no teleprompter in debates, either. :eyes:

4. I think brad should be THE repuke guest on every cable show
The guy digs himself deeper in the hole every time he's on. He's beyond stupid and smug to boot. He is not even capable of realizing how bad he's been nailed. He is a great ad for the republican party.

8. I love how three of us made threads on this, Brad is shameless!
Edited on Wed Jul-09-08 08:43 PM by ErinBerin84
Sometimes, the guests who he is up against just start laughing like "What the fuck?" when he says something batshit crazy. Which is all of the time. "The way he carries himself". A bit transparent there, Brad.

13. Brad Blakeman is such an asshole, that the more threads devoted to that fact the better!
Oh yeah, I loved when he said something like "The democrats have a new apology every week" and Dan asked Tanya whether Obama should accept the apology by Jessie Jackson, and Tanya said "Yeah, about apologies, Brad. I will be more than happy to accept your apology , for the things you say to me every week", or something like that.

11. Blakeman also equated
what Jesse Jackson and Rev. Wright said to Gen. Clark's comments.

Blakeman is ridiculous but he's feeding the accepted MSM narrative.

14. That's right. He just wanted to mention them even though they had nothing to do
with JJ's comments.
